Ellen Blackman Yoga is a tranquil and inviting yoga studio located in the vibrant neighbourhood of South Melbourne. Led by Ellen Blackman, a passionate and experienced yoga teacher, the studio offers a variety of classes and retreats that focus on restorative somatic rest and gentle embodied yoga.
Ellen's classes are designed to help individuals find their still point, move mindfully, and reconnect with their spirit. Influenced by a desire to help students connect to their subtle body, her classes incorporate somatic and embodied movement, allowing students to tap into the calm side of their nervous system. This slow and considered approach to yoga gives students the space they need to develop internal awareness of their body, allowing them to respond and move in a way that best serves them.
Each class at Ellen Blackman Yoga is themed around elements, chakras, or other subtle body focal points such as the spine or organs. These classes also interweave elements of the Tantric philosophy of Kashmir Shaivism and poetry, creating a unique and holistic experience. By unlocking the subtle energy flow of the body, students are able to come back to a sense of wholeness, health, and strength, while also awakening a sense of love and awakening within themselves.
What sets Ellen Blackman Yoga apart is its accessibility. Classes are designed with the needs of the group in mind and offer modifications so that individuals of all levels and abilities can participate. Whether you are new to yoga or have years of experience, you will find a safe and welcoming space at this studio.
